Subject: Re: [Openstack] Questions for community

1) Is there a way in OpenStack to get the private ip address of an instance ?

euca-describe-instances will show you the public and private ip addresses of an instance.  Ordinary users can only see their own instances, admins can see all instances.


2) if I don’t give a hostname while starting an instance, what is the default hostname assigned to the instance? Is it the instance-id returned by the Cloud Controller or some other fixed format?

yes, the default hostname will be the instance_id


Sorry for the delay in responding, but real reason why your questions weren't getting much attention is that this is the developer mailing list.  Questions like this will get better attention from the Q&A<https://answers.launchpad.net/openstack> site.
